Liberty School

Liberty School is the only K-12 school in the town of Joes, serving both towns of Joes and Kirk in the high plains of Colorado.
Eastern Colorado is largely farmland growing expansive fields of grain crops. Ironically, in the midst of all this agriculture we are a food desert; we have no access to locally grown vegetables.
Our ultimate garden goal is for the Industrial Arts and Future Farmer's of America Programs
to expand the greenhouse programming from growing only bedding plants to growing vegetables to start a community supported agriculture (CSA) program.
Our first step is to start a commercial hydroponic garden business growing year round Liberty Lettuce. If we receive your support we will purchase the equipment necessary to make this happen.
Liberty will not only teach hydroponics but the business skills along with it. Students will learn not only how to grow food with hydroponics but how to market it to local venues (the school cafeteria and the local food market.)
